And Messrs. Lennon, McCartney, Harrison and Starkey, M.B.E.. Special thanks go to Andy Babiuk. His Beatles gear book has cleared up many mysteries about Beatles guitars. It's meticulously researched and well written, and joins Mark Lewisohn's books as a must-have volume for anyone who loves Fab Guitars. Buy his book, folks. Well done, Andy. There's a lot of misinformation floating about, and I constantly strive to weed it out and present the most reliable facts I can find. If you spot an error or can offer an addition or clarification regarding Beatles-era guitars, please tell me . |
